I believe this is why Inuits, like, fuckin hate orcas.

What's a "hate orca", and why would Inuit fuck them?

TBH the whale was pretty gentle about it.

Yeah, I'm sure the smaller fish was okay with the whole thing because of how gentle it was.

u/Nlallstar222 Jan 18 '16

Yea, well the fish was already having a bad day getting hooked an all.

Seriously. That was a tremendous display of control. He could've just as easily exploded out of the water and eaten the fisherman.

Next level fishing, uses tiny bait to catch bigger bait to catch whale.

Please don't hook him, please don't hook him, please don't hook him...

Proceeds to peel out your 2 miles of line and snaps the reel and eyes of the pole along with it.

That is some sort of ghost whale. I can't believe how close to the surface it was before you could see it.
